All of the sunshine we’ve been treated to in Vancouver this week got me thinking about 
the best things about summer. Slurpees, bike rides without a jacket on, barbecues, lounging on one of the city’s many beaches, ice cream, hiking, camping, sipping cocktails on a patio… But at the very top of the list is the delicious, ripe, juicy, Okanagan fruit.
Today’s inspiration is the colour palette of a scrumptious peach: from yellow to orange to pink to magenta. Who wouldn’t want to spend a beautiful day in this peachy dream?
Clockwise from top left: Kuga Designs‘ roses and calla lilies in a variety of yellows, oranges, and pinks tie the whole colour scheme together; this tablescape would be so easy to DIY–beautiful and affordable!; I love this cake, by Eat Cake Be Merry; this aisle decor by Flowers by Natalie (photo by Holland Photo Arts) is cheerful and simple, and the flowers could easily be used again at your reception; followers of this blog are aware by now that I’m basically obsessed with non-traditional boutonnieres. This one was made by Hobby Lobby with items found in a grandmother’s craft boxes! (photo by Tec Petaja); I’m a big fan of leaving matching bridesmaid dresses at the door. This palette of peach, melon, satsuma, and carrot dresses was found on The Perfect Palette; last, but not least, this gorgeous apricot place card is by Martha Stewart.
